Hi,

I have Swap Magic 3.6 and a SCPH-70004, but whenever I try to load Swap Magic, be it either the CD or the DVD, it says "There is no data,"

It is a brand new PS2, so no dust.

What can I do?

Did you already cover or diconnect the sensors, whose advise you when the cover is opened?
There are 3 to cover or disconnect.

That shouldnt matter at this pont it should still read the disc. The sensors are for tricking the system when you need to make the swap. You will still nedd to do so once you get the disc running anyway or you wont be able to switch for the back up or what ever it is that you are swapping for.


I would imagine the disc is a failure. I have heard of many accounts of swapmagic needing to be replaced. Contact them via the website and see what they say. They would replace it for you I imagine. Try the store you got it from first but usualy when its a bad disc the website helps out from the stories I heard.

You´re right!
I´ve confused myself, didn´t even think he didn´t take the SM out of ps2.
So he got the message "no data" from Swap Magic itself.

Yeah, I got the no data message from swap magic itself.

I will try and contact the company I bought it from. I live in Denmark, so I don't know if the makers are willing to send me a new one.

And try to clean a little the laser lens.

Both of them actually did do the same thing.

So...if it´s that way, I suppose the problem is not with the discs.
If your ps2 is one of the big ones, you must open it to clean the lens, but if it is a slim one, is very easy.
